Litton to Hinton Blewett 6 mile walk with optional lunch at 2pm
Details
**Walk**
This 6 mile circular walk, starting in Litton, offers some wonderful views of the Mendip countryside and beautiful vistas around the beguiling lakes. On our way to Hinton Blewett, we will pass through the SSSI nature reserve of Long Dole Wood where we might see a variety of interesting birds before taking a short break at Coley Hill to admire the view. Dropping down off the hill, we will then skirt Litton reservoir and lake before returning back through the village to the pub.
Please arrive at the overflow car park at 10.15 for a 10.30 getaway.
**Parking**
The pub has asked us to use their overflow car park which is opposite the pub/main car park. Remember where possible to car share.
**Dogs**
Due to some restrictive stiles the walk is only suitable for small/medium sized dogs. Please ensure dogs are kept on a lead.
Pub is dog friendly
**Food**
We have booked a table for 25 people (this can be increased if there is the demand). The pub has waived the £10 deposit per person as we are a walking group. However, there is the expectation that if you sign up for the meal, you will still attend even if walk is cancelled due to weather conditions. They have requested that we pre-order food so please include this with your RSVP. Menu is in photos below or please click on link:
